Is your first civil trial approaching and you don’t know what to do? Is the "Simplified Procedure" really simple? Perhaps your first trial was a complete flop. Maybe you had a good result, but know you can be better. At this half-day program, prominent litigators will share with you their time-tested strategies and practical advice on topics ranging from preparing your case to the closing argument. You will also get invaluable precedents, papers and checklists including a bibliography and summary of resources. Tremendously popular in past years, this is the “must not miss” video of 2013 for newer litigators and advocates.
